Wot a super day it has been. First of all the sun has been shining but there was still a bit of wind coming in off the North Sea which managed to knock a couple of degrees off the temperature scale and the sea mist hung around until the mid afternoon.but that didn't worry us too much!

Come to think on it, we haven't seen Sheerness for a good few days now!

No, it's not a ship!

As we headed back to the car we came across a monster lurking in the grass! Holly and I gave it a really good woofing and Holly even said she would go and bite it's tail if it carried on looking at us!

OK, who is first to sort it out?

Old Two Legs reckons it's a balloon but we were not sure, so we stayed away! That was until the wind blew it down the hill and onto the beach where it was attacked by the incoming tide and carried away to torment Southend on Sea!

Freddy and Wendy Enjoyed their run and even Freddy managed to jog up to
the top of the hill before collapsing and demanding a carry to the start
of the 'Ferret Track'!

We met up with Poppy and Boo and Bryn who said that yesterday morning at six young Prince was found on his front door step, all wet and damp and covered in bracken and grass and mud and other stuff you get when you have been out hunting Nargles!

Still, it was clever of him to find his own way home, and at night!

We reckon he was in deep poo and could be kept on his lead for the next month or so!

The price us woofers pay for having a fun time!

When we got home we got told that Auntie Chris was visiting The Missus for a gas, as they do!

At lunchtime we headed off to the beach again but with May and Eric this time, and, Auntie Chris who wanted to visit the 'Famous Beach'!

There were a few new sniffs on the beach and even TM was interested!

I wonder wot that sniffs like?

Eric and May were jogging all the way back to the car 'cos there was still a chill in the air and the sun hadn't yet managed to peek through the mist yet.

While we were sniffing both May and Eric enjoyed a digging contest on the beach! Miss May won 'cos she did a 'Nose Dive' just like Holly Chops does!

We got banned from the office this afternoon 'cos Eric was still in Hyper Mode and had to be let out of the cage to rampage around the office. Miss May joined him and managed to fall into the rubbish bin in the office. Luckily it was just full of paper and plastic packaging, so she didn't hurt herself!

Holly and I have spent most of the afternoon catching up on our 'Snooze Time' so we will be ready for the evenings fun of mugging OTL!

About Me

Hello, my name is Daisy and I was taken away from
Mum and Dad by Old Two Legs and The Missus one cold dark evening. It was a bit
traumatic at the time but we all soon settled down and everything is OK now.

My sister Holly came to live with us about a year later and between the pair of us we manage to keep these Two Legs in line!

In December 2012, we were joined by Snowflake, a little ferret we found in our garden. She had her own home in OTL's office called Snowy Heights!

Then in July 2013 Mr Brambles, a super Sandy Hob Ferret, came to live with us and be a mate for Snowflake. We sadly lost Mr Brambles to old age in September 2015. A gentle ferret who will be missed terribly. We also lost Miss Snowflake in November 2015. She has left a big hole in our hearts, she was a real Daddy's Girl to the end.

There arrived two new ferrets in August 2015, Miss May and Miss April who are sisters, born in 2013, we think! They were full of fun and mischief and kept up the tradition of pinching our biscuits, just like Brambles did!

Sadly Miss April contracted Cardiomyopathy, which is a heart condition. She died in September 2016 and is resting in a flower pot in the garden with Snowflake and Brambles.

We were down to two ferrets and an empty cage but that didn't last long, a brother and sister ferrets needed a 'Forever Home' and Fred & Wilma moved in. They are about two and a half years old, so they were born 2012/2013. Fred is a gentle soul who loves cuddles with OTL and Wilma a bossy sister but loves OTL! We reckon them to be Polecat Coloured Ferrets.

It was a shock when Wilma was attacked by a dog and unfortunately died of shock a few hours later. Like Snowflake, Brambles and April, she is also sleeping in a flower pot in our garden.

Fred was not happy about being on his own and he was introduced to Wendy, a Polecat Coloured Ferret who found her way to the Harrietsham Ferret Rescue.

Introductions went well to begin with but within a day or so she began instructing Fred on just who was really in charge!

We had something similar with Miss May who lost her sister to Cardiomyopathy (Weak Heart). Miss May is a feisty young lady and she was introduced to Eric de Ferret while we were down at the Harrietsham Ferret Rescue and although she tried to be a bit bossy, he was having none of it! He may only be six months old but her didn't back down and the pair came to an agreement!

So young Eric moved in and they both started to learn how to get on together!

OTL takes us walking every day and we have 'Adventures'! The Missus feeds us, so, what more can a pair of puppies and family of fun loving ferrets ask for?
